10 Healthy Roasted Recipes from Around the Web

This week, we decided to mix things up and round up recipes based on a method of cooking instead of an ingredient. Across the country, the temperature is dropping, the leaves are falling, and we're ready for some serious comfort food. What better time to fire up the oven and test out some flavorful, roasted recipes?

This warming recipe features some of our favorite comfort-food ingredients: roasted squash, chili-flavored chicken, and gooey melted cheese. Since it's a bit time-consuming, save this tasty recipe for the weekend.
